Emily Blunt's SAG Award Speech Brough John Krasinski to Tears
Before they even arrived at the SAG Award ceremony last night, John Krasinski shared a selfie with his wife Emily Blunt, who was dressed in Michael Kors Collection, more or less admitting it was her night. "Honored to be on the arm of this double nominee tonight!" he wrote.

Blunt was nominated for Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Leading Role for her work in Mary Poppins and Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Supporting Role for the film they made together, A Quiet Place. She won the latter award for A Quiet Place, and the honor led her to give a gushing speech to her husband that kept him in tears. When she was announced the winner of the award, she was shocked and hugged Krasinski, who was overjoyed.

On stage, Blunt gave a minute speech where she dedicated the bulk to her husband. She said:
Oh my goodness me. Guys, that truly has completely blown my slicked hair back. Thank you so, so, so much. I am so moved and completely loss for words and unprepared. I am going to share this completely with my husband John Krasinski, who, because the entire experience of doing this with you has completely pierced my heart directly. You are a stunning filmmaker. I’m so lucky to be with you and to have done this film with you. Thank you for giving me the part. You would have been in major trouble if you hadn't. So you really didn’t have an option but thank you. And thank you to the two little poems in our life, our daughters, Hazel and Violet who will have to be at least 45 before they can see this film but they’ll be proud of you nonetheless.
